RPLKG: Robust Prompt Learning with Knowledge Graph

원문 초록

Large-scale pre-trained models have been known that they are transferable, and they generalize well on the unseen dataset. Recently, multimodal pre-trained models such as CLIP show significant performance improvement in diverse experiments. However, when the labeled dataset is limited, the generalization of a new dataset or domain is still challenging. To improve the generalization performance on few-shot learning, there have been diverse efforts, such as prompt learning and adapter. However, the current few-shot adaptation methods are not interpretable, and they require a high computation cost for adaptation. In this study, we propose a new method, robust prompt learning with knowledge graph (RPLKG). Based on the knowledge graph, we automatically design diverse interpretable and meaningful prompt sets. Our model obtains cached embeddings of prompt sets after one forwarding from a large pre-trained model. After that, model optimizes the prompt selection processes with GumbelSoftmax. In this way, our model is trained using relatively little memory and learning time. Also, RPLKG selects the optimal interpretable prompt automatically, depending on the dataset. In summary, RPLKG is i) interpretable, ii) requires small computation resources, and iii) easy to incorporate prior human knowledge. To validate the RPLKG, we provide comprehensive experimental results on few-shot learning, domain generalization and new class generalization setting. RPLKG shows a significant performance improvement compared to zero-shot learning and competitive performance against several prompt learning methods using much lower resources.
